EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Rustams Seventh Course: He Kills the White Div" created by the Persian School in the 16th century. Measuring 47x31.7 cm, this piece is a true masterpiece that belongs to a private collection. The image depicts a scene from the Shahnameh, an epic poem written by Abul Qasim Ferdowsi, where Rustam, a legendary hero of ancient Persia, triumphantly slays the formidable White Div. The artist skillfully employs watercolor and gilt on paper to bring this dramatic moment to life. From an elevated view, we witness Rustam engaged in a fierce struggle with his equine companion by his side. The undergrowth adds depth and intensity to the composition while emphasizing Rustam's heroic stature. This artwork beautifully captures both the physical prowess and noble spirit of its protagonist. The decorative techniques used by the Persian artist showcase their mastery of color and form. The vibrant watercolors highlight every detail, from Rustam's determined expression to his majestic horse's flowing mane. Gilded accents further enhance this visual feast for our eyes. This artwork not only exemplifies exceptional craftsmanship but also reflects elements of Zoroastrianism and Islamic art prevalent during that era. It serves as a testament to how literature can inspire breathtaking visual representations. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into an extraordinary world filled with bravery and adventure – reminding us of humanity's eternal fascination with heroes who conquer all odds in their quest for glory.
